Which number line represents the solution set for the inequality –4(x + 3) ≤ –2 – 2x?
A number line from negative 7 to 7 in increments of 1. A point is at negative 5 and a bold line starts at negative 5 and is pointing to the right.

The second option is the correct representation of the solution set for the inequality –4(x + 3) ≤ –2 – 2x. The bold line starting at 5 and pointing to the right indicates that all values greater than 5 are solutions to the inequality.
